93 +**8. Experimental Conditions / Variants**
94 +
95 +Two buildings:
96 +
97 +* Building A: Easier location, obstacles and environmental conditions. (clear visibility, ..)
98 +* Building B: Challenging location, obstacles and environmental conditions for humans and robots (e.g. smoke and obstacles).
99 +*
100 +
101 +Trial 1:
102 +
103 +* FR Team ROBOT does Building A
104 +* FR team HUMAN does Building B
105 +

116 +
117 +**10. Procedure (Step-by-Step)**
118 +
119 +1. Team training:
120 +11. FR team ROBOT is trained in operating the robot, analysing the camera stream, and pinning information on C3I
121 +11. Squad leader and BoO are trained for both teams in interpreting the health and location sensor data.
122 +11. Experiment leader knows where hazards and victims are in both buildings.
123 +1. Usecase preparation
124 +11. Building is prepped with victims, hazards, etc.
125 +1. Briefing:
126 +11. Same for both teams for both building types: Building has been inspected from outside and is estimated safe for entry. Situation inside unknown. Victims possibly present. Goal: find, assess, and extract victims while avoiding and mapping hazards.
127 +11. One person is notified that their health sensor will be triggered during the Building B (difficult building) situation.
128 +1. Execution:
129 +11. For FR team ROBOT, see: [[UC04.3: Detailed indoor exploration with ANYMAL (USAR)>>2\. Specification.b\. Use Cases.UC04\.0\: Detailed indoor exploration.UC04\.3\: Detailed indoor exploration with ANYMAL (USAR).WebHome]]
130 +11. For FR team HUMAN, see: [[UC04.4: Detailed indoor exploration without ANYMAL (USAR)>>2\. Specification.b\. Use Cases.UC04\.0\: Detailed indoor exploration.UC04\.3\: Detailed indoor exploration with ANYmal (USAR).WebHome]]
131 +11. During execution of both teams, performance will be measured by experiment leader:
132 +111. Mission completion time
133 +111. Health indicators stay within acceptable range
134 +111. Time for tackling any health alerts
135 +111. Track FR path
136 +1. Hotwash:
137 +11. Questions on:
138 +111. Near-incident report
139 +111. Path inside
140 +111. FR location and status of hazards, victims, and layout
141 +111. Mission effectiveness
